People who’re hooked on social media, shopping, video games, or even prescription drugs are all chasing the elusive high of dopamine release. Yet, the insidious nature of this addiction lies in its normalcy.

Our constant pursuit of instant gratification, fueled by readily available dopamine hits, is leading to a rise in addiction, anxiety, and overall dissatisfaction.

We need to become aware of the subtle yet potent influence of dopamine in our world.

By understanding its mechanisms and the dangers of chasing a constant dopamine rush, we can reclaim control of our happiness and chart a path towards a more meaningful existence.

Our ancestors experienced pleasure in small doses, but today we’re bombarded with it. This constant barrage messes with how our brains feel pain and pleasure.

Today, we live in a “Dopamine Nation” where everything from technology to fast food is designed to trigger dopamine release.

This constant barrage of stimulation disrupts the natural balance between pleasure and pain in our brains.

We become addicted to the quick dopamine rush, neglecting activities that require delayed gratification, but offer long-term benefits.

Stepping into your POWER and taking up the space you want to take.

That is what my 2025 is all about, and I get the feeling I am not alone.

Feeling powerful without focusing on performing, seeking approval or doing to please others, but because you want it.

Because it feels alive and good. Brings you forwards.

Without burning out and spending energy, money and time on things that drain you down to your bone.

Check out my latest Podcast and Youtube video on how to claim your power, and how you absolutely don't. Aka, where you give away your power.

Did you know your attachment style impacts all areas of your life?

Without you knowing of it, it makes you make biased decisions and treat people differently.

Our nervous systems know.

It’s a reason why anxiously attached people attract avoidant attached people and opposite.

Not just our nervous systems, we are attracted to their attachment style.. Even though it IS gonna blow up in our faces.

This also happens in friendships, work dynamics, politics, entrepreneurial styles, families… Everywhere we deal with decision making.

Our relationship with money!!!! You treat your money in the same way you treat your partner…

Haha, that’s a good way of choosing partners 😂 How do they treat their money? That’s how they will treat me..

According to Gabor Maté’s research, healing trauma can alter your ability to plan because trauma impacts brain function, especially in areas responsible for executive functioning, like the prefrontal cortex. Trauma can dysregulate the nervous system and create a state of hypervigilance or dissociation, making it difficult to access the calm, focused state required for long-term planning. Here are some ways this connection manifests:

1.Stress Response and Nervous System Regulation
Trauma keeps the body and brain in a fight, flight, or freeze state, which prioritizes immediate survival over future-oriented thinking. Healing can temporarily amplify awareness of this dysregulation as you process emotions, which may affect your ability to think ahead or make detailed plans.

2.Shifts in Identity and Priorities
Healing trauma often involves deconstructing old patterns, beliefs, and coping mechanisms that may have previously driven your planning behaviors. If those plans were based on pleasing others, fear of failure, or perfectionism, healing may leave you in a temporary state of uncertainty about what truly matters to you.

3.Changes in Cognitive Energy
Trauma healing requires mental and emotional energy. This focus on introspection, emotional processing, and self-regulation can leave less capacity for higher-level cognitive tasks like planning.

4.Impact on the Prefrontal Cortex
Trauma can impair the prefrontal cortex, which governs decision-making, organization, and planning. While healing, the brain is rewiring and creating new neural pathways, which can feel disorienting and temporarily hinder executive functioning.

5.Emotional Flooding
Processing deep emotions tied to trauma can overwhelm the brain’s ability to focus on structured thinking. This might manifest as difficulty with prioritization, procrastination, or a feeling of being “stuck.”

6. Shifting Out of Survival Mode
If you’ve lived in survival mode, planning may have been hyper-functional as a way to maintain control or predict outcomes. As you heal, your brain begins to relax from that overdrive state, leading to a period of recalibration where your planning processes feel less reliable.

When did we start needing an escape to feel free?

Our society seems to have created a paradox—people gather to connect but rely on substances to express themselves. Alcohol and other distractions have become the norm, but what are we really hiding from?

Alcohol and drugs are not just substances; they’re often symptoms. Our most common social tools are also the ones that distance us from our true selves. Why have we normalized this?”

Teenagers inherit this culture of escapism. The cycle continues as they seek connection and freedom, only to be introduced to ways of masking their true selves. What kind of world are we creating for the next generation?”

Imagine a space where everyone feels safe to show up as they are.

What if we fostered environments where authenticity was encouraged, and people felt safe to be themselves without the need for distractions? It’s time to challenge the norm and create spaces of genuine connection.

What are we running from?

In a world full of distractions, perhaps our biggest challenge is to face ourselves. What would happen if we met our fears head-on, and explored why we turn to escapism? This journey could be the most freeing of all.

Let’s create a culture of presence.

Escapism doesn’t have to be our default. Let’s build a society where we don’t need an escape to connect, where showing up as we are is enough.

Let’s redefine social connection.

Many women have s*x out of guilt for not being in the mood.

What if we as woman knew what we need to actually be in the mood?

What if men knew how to get us in the mood.

I hear so many men being frustrated with their partner’s lack of hornyness..

What if it’s all in their power to increase their partner’s s*xdrive.

Not judging and being open for whatever that is.

Maybe helping out with the dishes.

Giving her a massage.

Letting her sleep in.

Giving her time on her own, with her passions.

Cuddling her.

Stroking her hair, back, arms, legs.

And all of this without any need for getting s*x in return.

Giving to her because you want to help her. Want to see her relaxed. Get joy out of being there for her.

If we do with an expectation of getting something (s*x or a bl***ob) in return, then please just don’t do it.

Do it because you want to.

Find joy in the partnership, in the cuddles, in the kisses, in the massages.

S*x will probably come.

But don’t expect it.

The expectation makes women tense up every time you do something for her. She can feel that it comes with an expectation of her.

And again, she might end up having s*x out of guilt, and not because she wants to.

I assume you want your partner to want you. Desire you. Be wet and yearning for you.

Well, then start by flirting outside of the bedroom.

Note: if she is used to you expecting something in return, she might not trust this shift straight away. You will need to prove to her that you have changed.

Give it some time ❤️
